alt Hacker NewsIsn't that just an excuse to justify the scam? Texas has very low electricity prices and at the same time a growing share of renewables.

Texas famously had massive spikes in electricty prices and a near failure of the grid because of their electricity market structure, so it's not all sunshine and rainbows.

Been a while since I looked at a map but I don't remember us invading Texas and annexing them as part of His Majesties territories...

Texas has some different choices in their electricity markets but they use the same pay-as-clear marginal pricing system that the above poster thinks is a secret UK plan to subsidise renewables. In reality it is the standard way to set the market price of commodities.
